The Ties That Bind Us
#tales of luminaria#armi's art#it's easy to look at celia & the observer and come to the conclusion they share a connection to origin#b/c she/they are the king of the primordials & both - or at least celia does - have god's eye#so having the blessings of a beast/person where GOD with the capital G is one of their names should be considered Very Important#but i wondered - what kind of connection would lazui have?#unfortunately there's very little we know of him to go off of to draw such conclusions#other than he seems to be...let's call him 'the patron beast' of gildllan#and him & aglaya seem to be the 2nd more important of the primordial beasts on the game's key visual next to origin#however i noticed that celia & august are the only two ppl to have notable changes to their eyes#and yet i don't see anybody talking about it - or at least none that i know of#which is curious b/c august's eyes change due to a serum#& celia's eye definitely changed after le sant but may or may not have been caused by her embleo#i always thought that was a parallel that went under the radar in the community - would be curious to know what the JPN side thinks#w/ michelle and august there is the usage of wolf iconography#mainly present in one of august's alternate weapon skins#but most notably in that of all the spells in michelle's repertoire wolves are the most recurring#it's also ironic that although michelle grew up in a land that reveres tarulhan - a sheep#which are generally meek but peaceful animals#she's very much a fiercely loyal girl who will stand her ground and fight for all her worth#to which these are some of the traits wolves are known for: their intellect & the desire to protect their pack - their family#these of which august also possesses#august embraces his cunning to claim the imperial throne in his quest for justice for his family#whereas while michelle is astutely sharp for her age she worries that embracing that wit makes her a bad person#and there's a part of her that considers her kindness to be a weakness - but that doesn't stop her from doing what she feels is right#even if that means going against authority for it a'la grace#so while idk what connection her & august would have to lazui on a magical level#i like to think they are tied to him on that intellectual spectrum#and more so than just michelle looking almost identical to lucina#traditional art
